Faerie
The Faerie are from the Celtic-mythos, nature
spirits brought to life by the essence that they represent. You'll find
faerie almost e everywhere, the happiest ones happen to live in my
sock-drawer, though. There are many kinds of faeriekith as from the
Celtic-mythology. Some are good and some are slightly malignant when it
comes to humans. Stealing newborn babies & leading travelers off of cliffs
and stuff, but we try not to do that too often; got us into BIG trouble
before.
Pixies
Ah, Pixies. My sorts to play with. They are a type of faekith that abide
in the joys of living, are much less likely to be pranksters to anyone but
those who are mean to them. They adore music and dancing. Oftentimes may
even accidentally break precious china in the process; china makes an
excellent mirror surface for dancing next to. Pixies were often blamed for
the odd sounds that new houses make when the materials expanded and
contracted in cold & warm seasons, & were mostly blamed for causing doors
to stick when the weather turned damp. (Not that they were wrong to blame
them...those doors get ANNOYING after the umpteenth time you've been
smashed by one!!)
Sprites
Sprites are the more playful nature spirits, and are not likely to inhabit
anything but a tree, a special pond, or any other place that's serene and
cool. They are often found playing with nymphs, or tormenting butterflies
(not that the butterflies don't like it.) Sprites were charged with
changing the colors of the leaves on the trees come autumn, and they took
their jobs seriously! Each one comes fully equipped with bright orange &
yellow paints and several paint brushes to make sure his/her job is d one
properly. Sprites are also some of the most creative of the faekith ...
being muses to artists and poets. Sometimes they even decide to bond
themselves to a human or elven and stay with them their entire lives;
sometimes these Sprites even follow their bonded into the Otherworld.
(Note: There are also weather-Sprites who deal with the clouds and rain,
but that's normally done by particular rogue Faerie who like to ause
havoc. *giggle*)
Gnomes:
The Gnomes are the more civic minded faekith. They are the more earthly
biased of them. The guardians of sacred grounds, locations, and monuments.
Their greatest weakness is for gemstones and sparkly things which they are
in a constant state of unearthing and then redepositing somewhere else.
They made works of beauty out of the rock formations in remote areas. Some
Gnomes have also taken into jus' living in the forests under trees, and
while others have taken even to living with humans. There have been few
reports of the Elder Gnomes which are the Earth-Spirits that I orignally
begot this paragraph with.
